Roles Classification
Biological Role:
profungicide  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by metabolic processes before becoming the pharmacologically active fungicide for which it is a profungicide.
Applications:
profungicide  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by metabolic processes before becoming the pharmacologically active fungicide for which it is a profungicide.
pronematicide  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by metabolic processes before becoming the pharmacologically active nematicide for which it is a pronematicide.
proherbicide  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by biochemical (enzymatic), chemical (possibly following an enzymatic step), or physical (e.g. photochemical) activation processes before becoming the pharmacologically active herbicide for which it is a proherbicide.
proinsecticide  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by metabolic processes before becoming the pharmacologically active insecticide for which it is a proinsecticide.
insecticide  Strictly, a substance intended to kill members of the class Insecta. In common usage, any substance used for preventing, destroying, repelling or controlling insects.
pesticide  Strictly, a substance intended to kill pests. In common usage, any substance used for controlling, preventing, or destroying animal, microbiological or plant pests.
